The keyboard on my Lenovo T420 laptop is not working properly. I rebooted and was able to login using the key board but once in, the keys do not type. They make a haptic like sound when pressed. Could I have inadvertedly turned on a lock feature? Please help!!!

I did a bit more research and found that my filter keys were on which was causing my keyboard to have a delay when I pressed a key (I discovered when I pressed a key, I had to hold it down for a few secs in order to see the result). Turning off my filter key resoved this issue. I can type normally again and my keyboard is working great!!

I found this post on another site: "Your sticky keys are turned on...turn them off
control panel --> Accessibility Options --> turn sticky keys off"
